Hawaiian Electric Industries Reports Third Quarter 2016 Earnings

HE

GAAP Diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS) of $1.17;

Includes Merger-Related Net Income of $0.59

Merger Termination Payment Will Help Support Utility Investments

Core EPS[1] of $0.58

PR Newswire

HONOLULU, Nov. 4, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc.(NYSE - HE) (HEI) today reported consolidated net income for common stock for the third quarter of 2016 of $127.1 million and diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $1.17 compared to $50.7 million and EPS of $0.47 for the third quarter of 2015.  Financial results for the third quarter of 2016 include the one-time increase to net income of $63.8 million related to the recently terminated merger with NextEra Energy, Inc. and related spin-off of ASB Hawaii, Inc., as compared to $1.7 million net expense in the third quarter of 2015.  Excluding these items, core earnings1 for the third quarter of 2016 were $63.3 million and core EPS1 of $0.58 compared to $52.4 million and $0.49 respectively for the third quarter of 2015.

"The NextEra Energy termination payment will support HEI's investments in our community and projects our utility is undertaking to reliably integrate more renewable energy for its customers.  Through the first nine months of this year, Hawaiian Electric invested $230 million in local infrastructure projects to modernize the electric grid and to reliably integrate more renewable energy, moving us closer to our renewable energy goals.  And in October, Hawaiian Electric marked its 125th year of serving the people of Hawaii.  At American Savings Bank, we continued to deliver solid earnings growth and strong year-to-date annualized deposit growth of 9.4%," said Constance H. Lau, HEI president and chief executive officer.

Non-GAAP measure which excludes fees, reimbursements and other related costs to the recently terminated merger between HEI and NextEra Energy, Inc. and the terminated spin-off of ASB Hawaii, Inc. and costs related to the recently terminated LNG contract which required PUC approval of the merger with NextEra Energy, Inc.  See the "Explanation of HEI's Use of Certain Unaudited Non-GAAP measures" and the related reconciliation.

HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC COMPANY EARNINGS

Hawaiian Electric Company's2 net income for the third quarter of 2016 was $47.0 million compared to $43.0 million in the third quarter of 2015.  The increase was largely due to the non-recurrence of one-time items recorded in 2015.

O&M expenses were $5 million (after-tax) lower compared to the prior year quarter as the third quarter of 2015 was impacted by one-time items including the $3 million after-tax adjustment for enterprise resource planning software costs.  In addition, third quarter 2016 O&M costs were $2 million (after-tax) lower due to fewer overhauls performed. 

Lower O&M expenses were partially offset by $1 million higher depreciation expense as a result of increased investments for improved customer reliability and greater system efficiency, and the integration of more renewable energy.

Net revenues were relatively flat as $2 million (after-tax) higher recovery of costs for clean energy and reliability investments were offset by $2 million (after-tax) lower fuel efficiency.

AMERICAN SAVINGS BANK EARNINGS

American Savings Bank's (American) net income for the third quarter of 2016 was $15.1 million compared to $13.3 million in the second (or linked) quarter of 2016 and $13.5 million in the third quarter of 2015.  Third quarter 2016 net income was $1.8 million higher than the linked quarter primarily driven by $2 million (after-tax) higher revenues due to higher noninterest income and net interest income, partially offset by higher provision for loan losses.

Compared to the third quarter of 2015, net income improved by $1.7 million primarily driven by $2 million (after-tax) higher net interest income due to growth in the commercial real estate and consumer loan portfolios.  Higher net interest income was partially offset by higher provision for loan losses.

_________________________


Note: Amounts indicated as "after-tax" in this earnings release are based upon adjusting items for the composite statutory tax rates of 39% for the utilities and 40% for the bank.

Hawaiian Electric Company, unless otherwise defined, refers to the three utilities, Hawaiian Electric Company, Inc. on Oahu, Maui Electric Company, Limited, and Hawaii Electric Light Company, Inc.

Total loans were $4.7 billion at September 30, 2016, essentially flat compared to the linked quarter and increased $118 million year-to-date 2016.  Year-to-date annualized loan growth was 3.4%, on track for American's target of mid-single digit loan growth for the full year. 

Total deposits were $5.4 billion at September 30, 2016, an increase of $149 million and $355 million in the third quarter and year-to-date 2016, respectively.  Year-to-date annualized deposit growth of 9.4% was primarily driven by the $190 million (5.6% year-to-date annualized) increase in low-cost core deposits.   Average cost of funds remained low at 0.24% for the third quarter of 2016, 1 basis point higher than the linked quarter and 2 basis points higher than the prior year quarter.

Overall, American achieved solid profitability in the third quarter of 2016 with a return on average equity of 10.4% and a return on average assets of 0.97%.

For additional information, refer to the American news release issued on October 28, 2016.

HOLDING AND OTHER COMPANIES

The holding and other companies' net income (loss) were $65.1 million net income in the third quarter of 2016 compared to ($5.8) million net loss in the third quarter of 2015.  Excluding one-time merger-related items of $63.8 million net income in the third quarter of 2016 and $1.7 million net expenses in the third quarter of 2015, the holding and other companies' net income (loss) in the third quarter of 2016 and 2015 were $1.2 million net income and ($4.1) million net loss, respectively.  The holding company's third quarter 2016 results included favorable tax adjustments as HEI moved out of a federal net operating loss position, enabling the recognition of tax benefits.

EXPLANATION OF HEI'S USE OF CERTAIN UNAUDITED NON-GAAP MEASURES

HEI and Hawaiian Electric Company management use certain non-GAAP measures to evaluate the performance of HEI and the utility.  Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information and are a better indicator of the companies' core operating activities.  Core earnings and other financial measures as presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.  The accompanying tables provide a reconciliation of reported GAAP1 earnings to non-GAAP core earnings and the adjusted return on average common equity (ROACE) for HEI and the utility.

The reconciling adjustments from GAAP earnings to core earnings is limited to the fees, reimbursements costs and associated taxes related to the recently terminated merger between HEI and NextEra Energy, Inc., and the cancelled spin-off of ASB Hawaii, Inc., and the recently terminated liquefied natural gas (LNG) contract which required the Hawaii Public Utilities Commission approval of the merger with NextEra Energy, Inc.  For more information on the transactions, see HEI's Form 8-K filed on July 18, 2016 and HEI's Form 8-K filed on July 19, 2016, respectively.  Management does not consider these items to be representative of the company's fundamental core earnings.

The accompanying table also provides the calculation of utility GAAP O&M adjusted for costs related to the terminated merger discussed above. "O&M-related net income neutral items" which are O&M expenses covered by specific surcharges or by third parties have also been excluded.  These "O&M-related net income neutral items" are grossed-up in revenue and expense and do not impact net income.
